Evolution Korea
South Korea's democratic system is susceptible to populist impulses. However, it's healthier than one would expect.
The country is seeking an entirely new model of development. A Confucian culture that stresses respect for the ancestors and gendered family relations continues to influence society. There are signs of a secularist cultural trend that is emerging.
Origins
During prehistoric times the ancestors of the modern Koreans survived by hunting and gathering wild food. Around 10,000 years ago, they began to cultivate millet, beans, and other crops. They also raised livestock and produced furs. They established tribal states in Manchuria and later on the Korean peninsula. They also created a metalworking industry, producing bronze tools and later iron ones. They traded with other countries and introduced block and celadon printing to Japan along with styles of art as well as a written language and paper making.
Gojoseon was founded in 2333 BCE on the southern peninsula. This state embraced Buddhism and adopted Chinese culture including Confucian philosophy. During this time, the people of Buyeo joined Gojoseon. Gojoseon had a hierarchical structure in which a monarch and top officials were drawn from the landed aristocracy while the majority of the population were peasants. The state collected taxes from the citizens and often required them to fight in the army or work on projects for the government like building fortifications.
Onjo the prince of Goguryeo who was also the son of Jumong who was the founder of Goguryeo, founded the state of Baekje at the close of the period. The new kingdom grew into the southwest part of the peninsula, and clashed against Goguryeo's commanderies and China's in the region. Baekje adopted Confucian ideas into its state beliefs system in 1390 CE, and introduced the male-centric concept of filiopiety into a doctrine. In the name of filiopiety, fathers were responsible to their families. They had to be obeyed by all and

Goryeo, a nation that was ruled from 918 to 1392 CE in the year 1392 CE, introduced to the world the Hangul Alphabet based upon the shapes created by the mouth when pronouncing. This significantly improved communication between people, and resulted in an explosion of the writing of Buddhist texts. Woodblock printing and movable type were also improved. It was at this time that the Samguk sagi, also known as 'History of the Three Kingdoms' first appeared in 1145 CE.
The evolution of Korea
The Korean peninsula has been continuously inhabited since Neolithic times. Early evidence of human settlements are evident in the form graves lined with stones, with precious goods like amazonite jewelry being buried alongside the dead. Megalithic structures, referred to as dolmens, constructed from massive single stones, are prevalent throughout the country.
In the first half of the 1st millennium BCE, Gojoseon established itself as the first recognizable political state. The peninsula was ruled by various states during the Three Kingdoms period (57 BC- 635 CE) including Baekje Goguryeo, Baekje, and Silla. Additionally, the northern part of the peninsula was ruled by the Balhae kingdom, which many historians do not believe to be a legitimate Korean state.
Following the Three Kingdoms, several smaller states arose in the Proto-Three Kingdoms period, or Several States Period (yeolgugsidae). In all of them, Baekje was the most powerful state, but its dynasty ended when Goguryeo was defeated in 676 CE and left the southern provinces of Manchuria and the western region around Hwanghae Bay, while eastern Buyeo and the Gaya confederacy thrived for some time.
The Unified Silla kingdom then emerged and the three kingdoms began to cooperate to expand their territorial holdings. In the end, Silla, with significant Chinese assistance, defeated the other states and unified the peninsula in 935 CE.
As Korea enters the post-crisis era its development model appears to be changing. People who are shocked by the enormous cost of the old system advocate a thorough program of liberalization in capital as well as labor markets. On the other hand the supporters of the old system seek to protect it by promoting nationalist sentiments and by inflating fears about potential job losses.
The academic and policy analysts remain in a tense debate about the extent to these two developments are driving Koreas development towards a new model of economic governance. This article examines the five phases of Korea's development in terms of its political development including democratic democracies that are not liberal (1945-60) democratic autoritarianism (1961-72) authoritarian exceptionalism (1972-1877), democratic paternalism (2001-2002) and participatory democracy (2002). This article also highlights the most important factors that are the driving force behind these developments.
Creationism in Korea
In South Korea, 26% of the population is Christian. The creationists have been successful in promoting their beliefs to this population. A survey from 2009 showed that nearly one-third of respondents didn't believe in evolution. Of those, 41% claimed that there was insufficient scientific evidence to support evolution; 39% said the theory contradicted their religion and 17% said it was difficult to understand. The level of doubt is comparable to that of the United States where a similar percentage of people do not believe that humans evolved from lesser advanced species of life.
In the past, the anti-evolution movement in Korea was focused on teaching students and bringing Christ to them. In 1980, a four-day creation science seminar was held in Seoul during the World Evangelization Crusade. Drs. Henry Morris and Duane Giss of ICR were the featured speakers. The event was attended by a large number of church leaders, and 에볼루션 바카라 사이트 -

The success of this event led to the founding of the Korea Association of Creation Research (KACR) on January 31, 1981. The inaugural meeting was widely reported in national newspapers, including The Korea Times and Chosun Ilbo, and it attracted a lot of attention.
KACR began publishing a monthly newsletter, CREATION,

A KACR success was witnessed at the KAIST University in Seoul. There, there were enough students fascinated by the concept of creationism that they raised enough money and support to construct an on-campus museum with creationist fossil models and other exhibits.
In addition to its work, KACR has published a bimonthly magazine called CREATION. The magazine covers a variety of topics in the creation science. It also hosted a series of lectures by ICR staff. It has also established a network of local branch offices that give talks and seminars to schoolchildren and community groups.
The evolution of South Korea
In the late 19th century and the beginning of 20th, Korea moved toward a Westernised lifestyle. The hanbok, the traditional Korean dress, was replaced to miniskirts and other fashion elements imported from overseas. The traditional Korean music was also replaced by rock and roll and jazz. In the period of this transition the famous samulnori, also known as dance-dramas with masks were extremely popular. These dramatic pieces were performed with the accompaniment of shaman drums as well as various musical instruments.
